Wikitude Drive brings Augmented
Reality Navigation for Android
smartphones
Wikitude is bringing the wonders
of augmented reality to your
phone in a new setup called as the
Wikitude Drive. It’s quite similar
to its AR internet browser, but
this one also overlays the driving
directions on top of a live image
of the road, the one you captures
using your smartphone’s camera.
It also gives one the option to
include the usual Pol data thus
you would know where the next gas
station or food joint is.
The app also features the
standard view and voice-based
turn-by-turn commands with a
pedestrian mode in case you
decide to go on foot. The reason
this app will work great is because
you don’t have to really take your
eyes off the road when you check
for navigation instructions on the
handset. As of now it is available
in Canada, US and Mexico for a
price of $9.99. it is expected to
be available for folks from UK,
France, Italy, Spain, Austria,
Germany, and Switzerland
sometime during this year.
